Zhang Yiping shook his head and didn’t explain anything. He didn’t need to explain anything to Xu Shuzheng.
Xu Shuzheng secretly left with a sigh and walked out of the castle gate garden. He met Qu Weiqing with several foreigners, all of whom he knew, one of the British and French delegations, and Laurent, the British embassy and deputy ambassador.
Not long ago, Qu Weiqing was one of his hands in Xu Shuzheng, but now Qu Weiqing doesn’t even look at him, talking and laughing with a few foreigners in front of him.
There was a song coming from a big room like a classroom near the garden. I could tell that it was a female teacher who taught people to sing. Looking through the glass window, I saw a beautiful young woman wearing a military uniform with short hair. Some lyrics were written on the blackboard behind the podium. Young female soldiers sang a line, and the men sang along.
The female soldier’s song is very beautiful. Although it is sung sentence by sentence, it still attracts Xu Shuzheng deeply. He can’t help but listen quietly on a sculpture surface.
Obviously, the song also attracted Qu Weiqing and others. After listening to Laurent for a while, they said, "Mr. Qu, this song is very beautiful. The song sings a big river, right?"
Xu Shuzheng didn’t recognize Qu Weiqing in the same way, but said, "It’s not Mr. Laurent. China is too big. Most of our soldiers come from the countryside. Few people have seen the Yangtze River. In this song, a big river is actually an ordinary river at the entrance of their hometown. Even a small river is a big river in their minds.
In fact, there is a river in everyone’s heart, especially in China, who is far away from home. We soldiers have to come to Europe because we want to return to our motherland because there are still many invaders in our country … "
Laurent was infected and nodded and said, "I don’t know what you mean, Mr. Qu. I’m going back to write a report now. I’m going to tell this song and lyrics to Mr. Ambassador and the Prime Minister.",
Xu Shuzheng Sun Zhongyao came back to his residence and asked, "Sir? Did Zhang Yiping promise? "
Xu Shuzheng shook his head and said, "Zhang Yiping doesn’t trust that you won’t let you stay. You are still dead. Come back with me!"
"No, I don’t want to go back!" Sun Zhongyao categorically said that he took out a set of dirty clothes from under his bed, which was the work clothes he picked up from the garbage dump in Rouen.
Sun Zhongyao said, "If Zhang Yiping doesn’t want me, I will pretend to be a laborer and go to the military camp myself. If I am a China, they will accept me."
"Zhong Yao, if you want to know clearly that you can start as a soldier in this way, it is a battlefield and you may die at any time."
Sun Zhongyao nodded resolutely and said, "I’ve made up my mind."
Later, Sun Zhongyao quietly went to his residence with a bag. He had planned to spend the night outside Rouen, change his Chinese clothes and pretend that he was a former runaway. Now that China people have occupied Rouen, they have come back.
China soldiers will naturally send him to the new barracks when they find him, so that he will enter the camp.
On the same night, the lights in the room of British Deputy Ambassador Laurent were on all night. Laurent was drafting a newspaper for the British Prime Minister, and he wanted to send his knowledge and opinions back to China overnight.
"From this song, I heard a deep homesickness, a sadness of leaving home …" Laurent wrote in his newspaper. "China people have a feeling of falling leaves and returning to their roots, which determines their lack of pioneering spirit. This is also the reason why China people have no overseas colonies today-their history used to be so strong.
Chinese workers came to Europe in order to be able to return to their hometown safely, because they are reluctant to part with their hometown. Although their home is a small stream, they feel that it is 100 times and 10,000 times more beautiful than the Seine … "
Laurent’s conclusion is that China people don’t have ambitions in Europe, not that they don’t have the ability, but that they don’t have this * * because their hometown is a small place where China looks down on Europe.
Finally, Laurent thinks it is feasible to send 100,000 Chinese laborers back to the Chinese Communist Youth League, which will not pose a threat to the British expeditionary force and will disintegrate the fighting spirit of China soldiers, because what they want most is not to fight for hegemony but to go home.
The next day, the situation turned sharply. On behalf of the British, Laurent agreed to send the remaining 100,000 Chinese Ministry of Industry to the Chinese Communist Youth League. However, the British also hoped that the Chinese Communist Youth League could meet their conditions, namely, withdrawing from Rouen Port, returning materials, lifting the military threat to Wapu and releasing prisoners.
The British people have met the conditions of China people, and according to common sense, China people should also meet their conditions.
Qu Weiqing is out of the meeting. He wants to discuss with Zhang Yiping.
In Zhang Yiping’s office, Qu Weiqing and Yuan Wanhong sat in front of Zhang Yiping’s desk. Qu Weiqing happily called out "Twelve sisters will get a red wine for 96 years."
But soon QuWeiQing added "no! Let’s take a champagne and celebrate one! "
Yuan Wanhong asked incredulously, "Vice President Qu is not yet ready to celebrate, is it? The British want our dock material commander-in-chief to say that he will not give it to them. "
Qu Weiqing patted Yuan Wanhong on the shoulder and said, "Hey, hey, you young people are too honest to promise them. So what? By the time they send those things from the Ministry of Human Resources, we will have sold them out. Even if we sell them, we will not only sink them into the bottom of the river, but also accidentally go off and burn them clean. How can they stand us then? Don’t you think it’s the commander in chief? “…,
Zhang Yiping said, "French beauties say I am a real gentleman. How can a real gentleman break his word? Unless I stop picking up girls. "
"Come on, I’ll do the ungentlemanly work. Anyway, I don’t pick up girls. I’m like a moth when I meet my brother!" Qu Weiqing said
"There is no need to do this, Brother Wei Qing!" Zhang Yiping said, "Europe pays the most attention to the spirit of contract. When it comes to it, it is a gentleman’s demeanor. You can kill and set fire to houses, but you can’t be without gentleman’s demeanor. Even if you kill and set fire, you must be a gentleman’s demeanor."
Zhang Yiping said, "Let’s tell the British that the dock materials can’t, at least, be returned to them. When the Chinese workers come, we have nearly 150,000 people who gave them everything. What do we eat and wear? Want to starve to death and freeze us to death! "
Qu Weiqing said kindly, "Well, I’ll grind my teeth with the Englishman again tomorrow."
Fang Shier’s sister is very clever. Three people take out a bottle of champagne and three goblets.
Qu Weiqing said, "Twelve sisters take an extra glass, and you also have a drink. You also have a contribution. If your song didn’t touch the British, they wouldn’t compromise so quickly."
Zhang Yiping’s heart said that the so-called being moved by the song is just an excuse for the British. The British finally chose to compromise temporarily because of their interests and the consideration of the war situation. The bloody interests behind it are definitely not so elegant.
That song was an opportunity, but even so, it was a beautiful event, and it became the name of Fang Shimei and Qu Weiqing. Zhang Yiping didn’t think it was necessary to break it.
"I also have the credit? I just taught those officers to sing a song. If even this is credited, wouldn’t the singer be more credited? " Twelve younger sister said at a glance Zhang Yiping.
Zhang Yiping laughed. "People often remember who was the star who sang? Where will you remember whose song? Compared with me, you have the greatest contribution. Go on, let’s have a glass of English softness. Besides, when we come to France, champagne is mostly because we don’t have to look at the English face. "
Fang’s twelve sisters quickly went to get a glass and filled it with champagne. Qu Weiqing raised the glass and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a historical moment, and our group will grow and become a force to be reckoned with. At this moment, champagne full of jubilant bubbles can express our joy! Let’s drink to the future! "
Chapter 167 Bitterness
Qu Weiqing is very happy, just like a great victory in the real diplomatic battlefield, but Zhang Yiping is not as optimistic as he imagined. In fact, there are still many differences between China and Britain, and it seems impossible to reach an agreement.
But the result is beyond Zhang Yiping’s expectation. It is very likely that Qu Weiqing will come back every night to report that the British are no longer as tough as before.
At this time, Zhang Yiping had to consider whether the British would accept it if they really compromised.
Zhang Yi was ambivalent, and he didn’t want to compromise with the British, because after the British released those Chinese laborers, he had no excuse to attack the British.
Does he vaguely think that the compromise made by the British is that their fourth regiment has reached a dangerous level in the snowy weather?
If this causes the fourth regiment to be wiped out, then …
Zhang Yiping can’t imagine how the British will treat the Chinese Communist Youth League and the South China University of Technology Camp.
Of course, Zhang Yiping is not afraid. Although the British team is very strong, he is a standard soldier. He will still attack and never flinch in the face of strong enemies.
Since he entered the British barracks that night and killed dozens of British people, he has put life and death at risk. For a real soldier, death is always with his companions.
But QuWeiQing also right to temporarily "endure" one * * group may increase nearly hundreds of troops and don’t pay much price.
It is possible to destroy the Fourth Regiment of the British Expeditionary Force and make a choice to develop itself. It is difficult for Zhang Yiping to be left and right because both sides are very tempted.
Zhang Yiping thought about it and finally decided to "endure" it for a while, and the fourth British regiment was delusional to develop itself first.
Although I am stuck in the British supply line, it is still necessary to rely on the German team, which can’t control what I have. It is better not to think about it.
Now he is not a person, but a group of nearly 10 thousand people. He can sacrifice his life at any time, but he can’t sacrifice the future of so many brothers
Qu Weiqing’s efforts to negotiate have made rapid progress. Although there are great differences between China and Britain, to be honest, it is not a serious problem, at least not as serious as the supply problem of the Fourth Regiment.
Zhang Yiping, the bottom line is.
First, the British want to conditionally release the Chinese workers imprisoned in the Chinese workers’ camp, which is the most basic interest of Chinese workers. There is no room for bargaining.
Second, the Chinese regiment can eliminate the military threat to Puwa, withdraw the 12th division from the periphery of Puwa, return to the default boundary line between the two sides, and release the British prisoners of war.
Third, the Chinese Communist Youth League will not quit until it finds a suitable foothold in Rouen Port, but if the British Communist Youth League needs to make Rouen Port and surrounding railway facilities, we welcome it, and the Chinese Communist Youth League will ensure the safety of their ships and goods.
Fourth, the port materials in Rouen, which are the most symbolically returned by the Chinese Communist Youth League, should be owned by the Chinese Communist Youth League.
Although this is a little far from the expectations of the British, since the British government has made up its mind to solve the problem of the Chinese Communist Youth League, these problems are not a problem.
What the British are most worried about is the supply of the fourth regiment’s military supplies. It is not a problem for the Chinese regiment to lift its military opposition.
Since Rouen Port was occupied by the Chinese Communist Regiment, the supplies of the Fourth Regiment of the British Expeditionary Force in Amiens East, the western battlefield, can be supplied by the supplies from Calais, but Amiens in Calais has no railway connection and can be transported by road.
However, although the periphery of Wapu, the 12th division of the Chinese Communist Youth League, has not cut off the traffic of Wapu Highway in Calais for the time being, it makes the British people tremble with fear like a sharp knife holder around the main artery.
After the 12th Division’s attack, it can break through the Canadian army’s defensive occupation of Wapu in one hour, and cut off the life supply line of the 4th Regiment so that the 4th Regiment can resist the German attack.
It is precisely by grasping this point that Zhang Yiping dares to be tough on the British. The world, especially Europe, relies on hard fists rather than beautiful music. Like Qu Weiqing and the British Deputy Ambassador, many lovers who don’t know, a song breaks the deadlock between the two sides. This is a very naive idea.
Now, since the Chinese Communist Youth League promised to eliminate the military threat to Wapu, and also released Rouen Port and the surrounding railways, the supply problem of the Fourth Regiment of the British Expeditionary Force has been completely solved. Although the British people have some heartache, these materials of so many overseas colonies of the British Empire are relatively large, but they are also nine Niu Yi hairs
History has given a high evaluation to this negotiation, which is as high as Ping-pong diplomacy in later generations. It is called "music diplomacy" or "a big river diplomacy". Through one song and two groups, misunderstandings have been eliminated, understanding has been enhanced, and the two sides have joined hands to promote and influence the historical process in Europe.
The formal agreement has not been signed yet, but some projects have been implemented, such as sending Chinese workers to the Chinese Communist Youth League.
A batch of straw huts were temporarily set up along a road leading from Wapu town to Omale town. The front straw huts were full of cotton-padded clothes, which were all shipped from Rouen port. In the middle straw huts, pancakes were piled up like hills. In the back straw huts, more than a dozen cauldrons were on fire. A soldier uncovered the cover and put a large handful of peppers to stew.
It’s steaming in the hut, but it’s snowing outside and the wind is cold.
It’s not far from Wapu Town. You can see several officers at the exit of Wapu Town in the straw shed. The pipe is stretched and the neck is looking at the exit of Wapu Town.
"Come out!" Several people cried at the same time, and they all put their heads out to see their work.
Out of Wapu town came a group of Chinese laborers with thin clothes and trembling with cold. They staggered out of the hut at a very slow speed.
However, on the way, after smelling the smell of meat, the speed increased quickly.
